Chapter 645: This Is Really Sad News

The site of the Western Wei Palace is the former Qin Palace.

The Qin domain was one of the earliest relatives of the Ming Dynasty, and the first Qin domain was Zhu Yuanzhang's second son Zhu Zhang, and since then the Qin domain has continued in Guanzhong for more than 270 years.

Because of the special status of the clan, no matter what he does, whether it is doing business or lending money to the people in a disaster year, the Qin clan will make a steady profit and will not lose money.

Generally speaking, after the accumulation of silver money in the hand to a certain scale, money can make money, and wealth will become more and more concentrated, as has been the case for land annexation for generations.

During the more than 200 years that the Qin Domain had been in Guanzhong, the assets of the Qin Domain only needed to increase by 5 percent per year, and the wealth accumulated by the Qin Domain would become a terrifying number.

The vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, without exception, were mostly rich and rival countries, so the Qin vassal was able to build a magnificent palace of the king of Qin.

It's just that Li Zicheng came, and everything became a cloud of smoke.

When Li Zicheng invaded Xi'an, the palace of the Qin Dynasty was burned by the generals of the Qin Palace, but only a few halls were destroyed, and a large number of buildings still existed.

Later, Li Zicheng withdrew from Xi'an and set fire to it again, burning most of the buildings in the palace of Qin.

Now the Western Wei Palace is rebuilt on the site of the Qin Palace, but it is impossible to restore the scale of the Qin Palace.

During the two hundred and seventy years of the old Zhu family, the house that was built intermittently is not comparable to a person like Gao Yihuan who has no background.

At this time, the finances of the feudal government were not enough to make ends meet, and the palace was built in the style of ordinary people, and more bricks were used and less wood was used.

Thanks to the efforts of the Ministry of Industry, several palaces that have not been burned down have been repaired, and the ruins have been planted with flowers and plants and transformed into forest gardens.

In a large open space, there are a few lonely houses, which look shabby, but fortunately, Gao Yihuan does not have many families, and there are so many buildings that are enough to live in.

Now the shabby is shabby, as long as you can live, and when you have the money and the national strength is strong, you will go to the Qinling Mountains to cut huge trees for beams, burn green bricks for walls, and build a palace comparable to the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, in a small hall in the palace, Gao Yihuan sat on the throne, and there were many generals on both sides.

After the proclamation of the feudal state, the bureaucratic system of the Western Wei Dynasty was improved, and the establishment of the army also underwent some changes.

Gao Yihuan set up the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies in Xi'an, with five armies on the left, the middle and the right, each army set up the left and right governors, and the Ten Governors as the highest-level commanders of the Wei army, took turns to go out of Beijing to guard the place, so that Gao Yihuan could control the military power.

The establishment of the armed forces also began to change, with nine town soldiers set up throughout the country, with a full strength of 30,000 men, and each local government had to organize a battalion of militia regiments.

At this time, Gao Yihuan gathered all the generals, but not to discuss the affairs of the army, but to discuss the recent military situation.

"Great King, since the withdrawal of Daishan on the Eastern Front, Haoge in Hetao and Yechen in Shanxi have also retreated separately. Recently, there has been no large-scale war between our army and the Qing army, only not long ago, after Geng Zhongming of Luoyang received reinforcements, he waved his army of 50,000 to the west, and fought with our army in the area of Shaanzhou, and then after our army withdrew, he captured Shaanzhou! Jin Shenghuan stood up and said.

Gao Yihuan said: "Shaanzhou is the gateway to the west of Luoyang, in our hands, Geng Zhongming is difficult to sleep and eat in Luoyang, he waved his army to the west, and collected the west of Henan, which was expected by the lonely king." ”

Saying that, Gao Yihuan asked: "Geng Zhongming took Shaanzhou, did he make any further moves?" ”

"No, I just released 20,000 horses to monitor Tongguan in Shaanzhou, and this guy went back to Luoyang!" Jin Shenghuan said.

Gao Yihuan bowed slightly, "Shaanzhou was taken by Geng Zhongming, and Tongguan had no buffer, and the safety of Tongguan was directly related to the safety of Wang Jing. ”

Fang Jiayu stood up and clenched his fists, "Don't worry, the king can rest assured, Xuanyi Wei will closely monitor Geng Zhongming, and even what he eats every day will be investigated." ”

Gao Yihuan nodded, and asked again: "How is the war between the Ming army and the Qing army in Jiangbei?" And Yuan Zongdi and Liu Shun, what is the situation in eastern Henan? ”

"Back to the king, the news from the detailed work, most of Xuzhou Town was captured by the Qing army, a small part broke through to Suqian, was surrounded by the Eight Banners again, Gao Jie broke through several times without success, and finally was killed in Suqian, most of Xuzhou Town surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, after the Ming army sailors entered Huai'an, they were stopped by the shipwreck, failed to meet Xuzhou Town, and have withdrawn from the Huaijiang River and returned to the south!"

Xuzhou Town is a relatively capable force in the Ming army, even if it is placed in the world, it can be regarded as a strong army.

They were Shun troops earlier, and later surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and completely experienced the turmoil in the north during the Chongzhen period.

Now that Gao Jie is dead, the Ming Dynasty is like a broken arm, and Gao Jie's fierce generals surrender to the Manchus, which will undoubtedly enhance the strength of the Manchus.

Gao Yihuan frowned when he heard this, and felt that he should find a way to carry out assassinations and kill these generals.

At this time, Fang Jiayu continued to report: "The situation in eastern Henan is more complicated. Originally, General Yuan and General Liu had opened up the situation in eastern Henan, and not long ago, the Qing army surrounded General Liu, but General Liu called reinforcements, but the Qing army was defeated, and took advantage of the victory to occupy Sui County. However, with the fall of Xuzhou Town and the return of the Qing army, the two generals could only continue to wander. ”

After the biggest nail in Xuzhou was removed, the Qing army must have begun to solve the small anti-Qing forces in the territory, Gao Yihuan could think that the soldiers behind the enemy would inevitably fight very hard, and he said with a serious expression: "Xuanyiwei must try to give them the greatest support!" ”

"Command!" Fang Jiayu clenched his fists.

At this time, Li Laiheng walked in, "King, General Zhou has arrived!" ”

Gao Yihuan raised his eyebrows, "Let him in!" ”

Not long after, Zhou Ronghua, who was in the dust, walked in under the leadership of the guards, plopped down and squeezed out two tears, "Minister Zhou Ronghua, meet the king!" Fortunately, he didn't disgrace his life and finally came back! ”

Gao Yihuan hurriedly stood up, stepped down from the throne, helped him up, looked him up and down, brewing emotions, and tears in his eyes, "General Zhou, you have lost weight and become dark." Suffering! ”

Zhou Ronghua was in tatters, his hair was unkempt, and he did suffer a lot, but before he came to see Gao Yihuan, he had time to clean up his appearance.

In fact, he just ate a whole roast chicken before he came to the palace, as for why he kept it like this, it was to let Gao Yihuan see that he had suffered hardship.

"Being able to do things for the king is nothing at all!" Zhou Ronghua raised his head and looked at Gao Yihuan, his eyes full of perseverance.

Gao Yihuan patted him on the shoulder with emotion, "You have made a great contribution to the Lone King this time, and the Lone King will not treat you badly." Come, tell the Lone King, what good news you have brought back! ”

"King, Zhang Xianzhong is dead!" Zhou Ronghua said immediately.

Gao Yi was overjoyed, it was not easy, and finally Lao Zhang Pan died.

"This is really one~" Gao Yihuan was about to laugh, his eyes just caught glimpse of Li Dingguo, who was sitting at the bottom, and instantly held back the joy in his heart, blushed, and changed to a heavy tone, "This is really sad news!" ”
